Item 9 Labs Continues Dominating the Arizona Market With a 30% YOY Unit Sales Increase in February

Item 9 Labs—an award-winning, premium cannabis brand from Item 9 Labs Corp. (OTCQX: INLB)—clipped a 30% increase in unit sales for February 2023 compared to February 2022, while continuing to increase its profit margins.

“The Arizona cannabis market has been riding the wave of Super Bowl through to Spring training and the upcoming 4/20 cannabis holiday,” said the Company’s CEO Mike Weinberger. “With this, we are optimistic that our award-winning cannabis products will continue exceeding expectations and meeting consumer demand in the coming months.”

The brand’s ongoing positive momentum in 2023 was also recently elevated with a podium finish at the Spring Errl Cup, Arizona’s biggest cannabis awards and festival event, that took place March 11-12, 2023 in Mesa, Ariz. Item 9 Labs’ Dosi Whoa cannabis strain earned a third-place award in the “Sativa Flower” category.

Twice a year, the Errl Cup evaluates the accountability of dispensaries and caregivers in Arizona by using secret shopping, lab testing, and blind judging from over 70 patients. The competition combines judge and lab results to determine winners, while also ensuring that entries containing hazardous materials or exceeding residual solvents of 5000 ppm are eliminated.

“Our increasingly positive performance showcases the true attention to quality driving the Item 9 Labs brand in Arizona,” said Weinberger, noting that the state has become one of the ten most successful adult-use markets in the country.

Along with the recent win, Item 9 Labs received two second-place awards and two third-place awards at the Fall Errl Cup across the various vape, concentrate, and pre-roll categories, bringing the brand’s total achievements to over 30 podium finishes since its inception in 2017.
